INFRAPLEX 2005

Video Tracer

The new video camera of the system is the DVC 102 robot camera. This camera also provides Full HD 1080p quality. The DVC 102 optical qualities are more favorable than the DVC 100 camera, It has 30x optical zoom, 4.3-129 mm (59.5 ° (wide) - 3.3 ° (tele)). The image repetition rate is also significantly higher than the DVC 100's 25 image/sec. In case of DVC 102 this rate can be up to 60 image/sec. This camera cannot be used outdoors, contrary to the DVC 100 which has IP 67 protection. The DVC 102 has HD-SDI and also HDMI output. The numbers of the preprogrammed positions are 128.

The PEP 3001 Basic Unit has been equipped with a USB connector. This allows connecting the PEP 3004 computer conference controller directly to the Basic Unit.Until this time In case of computer control we needed an ETP 370 power supply-HUB, even if the system was operated with few delegate units, because USB port was only on ETP 370. Now, the computer controlling can be used 1-35 delegate units without ETP 370. For more than 35 pcs delegate units ETP 370 is needed due to the power supply.

The new model number is PEP 3001M

We have introduced new power supply beside the previous ETP 325 . The ETP 335 power supply is able to power up 35 delegate units.

The DVC 304 Video Controller is the larger version of the DVC 301 Controller. It has 8 inputs and 16 outputs. Based on our operating experience the 8 outputs of DVC 301 Video Controller may be not enough in case of large events. The Control Cube engages 4 outputs and the remaining 4 outputs are not always sufficient. (For example if we operate more screens, we connect to video conferences, we transfer images to interpreters etc.) We have also expanded the service of the DVC 301 Video Controller. The DVC 304 cannot be only operated by USB, but we have also supplied it with a RJ45 network plug. The advantage of this service extension is that the system runner Control Cube can be removed from the DVC 304, so the USB port limited cable length is not problem. It can be controlled via local network or even the Internet. This also may be advantageous, because typically it connects to the Control Cube on the DVC 304 LAN placed on the technical location, so even the event moderator can manage the video control from the location with the help of the Control Cube graphical screen and a mouse.

The PEP3010V Control Cube is the computer that controls the system. With its built-in special extension card, it is able to receive 4 HD-SDI signals. These four video signals may be recorded separately or with a single split image. The software of the Control Cube is the control software that manage the Video Tracer. It controls the DVC 301 and DVC 304 controllers, and the robot cameras via the Video Controllers. It prepares the event by programming the cameras, and setting the possible connections. The Control Cube is the controller of the event, where the pre-programmed video camera connections and the robot cameras can be controlled only by mouse clicks. The video of the event is recorded to the Control Cube winchester in Full HD quality. The floor sound sign gets beside the recorded video. The Control Cube sends the video of the event to the streaming server as a broadcaster. Our system is able to record video with split screen, and to stream video as well. The PC program of the Control Cube can connect to all known video streaming provider server. For the Digiton Video Tracer we operate a service website, where we can even provide events with large headcount. At this website, the video stream sent by the Control Cube can be also viewed in Full HD quality. The service ensures the lag-free, continuous, high-quality play with CDN technology. The broadcast can be public or private (protected by user name and password). The website is available at www.conferencestreaming.net.

The PEP 3012V Video Conference Cube can connect remote participants to the event with image and sound. With the aid of special extension card it can connect to the DVC 301 or the DVC 304 Video Controllers. The video conference client program installed on the Video Conference Cube is able to connect even 200 remote participants' image and sound to the system. It is also possible that the remote participant's presentation appears on the screen of the event, so we can even connect a remote lecture to the event. The remote participant is enough to have a web camera and a microphone, as well as a free program installed on the PC, which has a simply used software. If we would like to connect two events (two Video Tracers) we also have to use the Video Conference Cube. The video conference service provides the low latency with cloud-based CDN technology. The low latency enables the PEP 3012V Video Conference Cube that with the help of Video Conference Cube we can ensure simultaneous translation with remote interpreters in the Digiton Video Tracer System. The remote interpreter can see and hear everything, what is happening on the event within 1 second delay. The video conference service can be tested on this website: www.conferencestreaming.net
